Album Notes

Darby O'Gill is a high-energy stage-show band that uses fine music and cutting humor in a singularly Irish style, and is equally at home in an intimate pub setting as on a concert stage.

Their music is ancient and modern, from a 14th century Madrigal to Pink Floyd. Many of them are original, award-winning pieces. The majority are traditional Irish/Scottish songs. But the single most important thing to be said about their music is that in none of it is there ever to be found any hint or reference to squirrels.

Another great CD!!!!!!!!!
author: Lynn m Houston
Very different from their CD, Driven to Drink, but not in a bad way. I would recomend this CD to all my friends and family. I am hoping there will be more to come....

The definitive modern pub album!
author: Edward Burke, Celtic music fan and College DJ
http://wwpv.smcvt.edu The live tracks on this album shows that Darby O'Gill has what no other band seems to have out there today: enjoyment of their own music. It seems as though the songs on "Waitin' for a Ride" were written and adaptped specifically for an audience, and not just for an Irish audience: there is some Scottish material here and one Russian song. Definately check out "The Kretchma", "Birnie Bozule/When will we be Wed", "Irish Ballad" and their ad-lib heavy treatment of "Finnigan's Wake". Kick back with a cold one after work and check this out. (Just be kind to a squirrel if you happen to meet one randomly)!
